Here’s the long and short of it: I don’t play scary games. I’m a huge wimp and I know my limits, thank you very much. Yet, I keep getting called back to play those kinds of titles while wearing the KOR-FX Immersive Gaming Vest… and I keep agreeing. Why? Because despite my crushing wimpiness, I actually have a lot of fun with it.

(THANKS, GUYS.) Playing the game was terrifying. Feeling the game was an entirely different beast, as evidenced by the image below.

Hint: I’m the flailing creature on the left.

This time around, I suited up to play Alien Isolation. Not exactly a “scary” game, but scary enough for me. I was thrown in at about the 40-minute mark and though I didn’t encounter a huge amount of actual Aliens at that point, I almost didn’t need to. The vest allowed me to experience a real level of tension that was both nerve-racking and exhilarating. Check out some of the highlights from my playthrough and see why my mom is so proud of me:

Some of you may be asking, “What is the KOR-FX vest?” so I’ve got a quick break-down for you:

With its innovative technology, you can feel your enemy’s vehicles approaching, or detect which direction a sniper is firing from. It’s the kind of leg up that can take your competitive gameplay to the next level. Playing Counter-Strike: Source, Call of Duty, or Arma 3 with KOR-FX is a bit like the first time you watched television in HD–it brings the realism to a level you didn’t know existed. the next level of immersive gaming has arrived.
